The actual message would be most helpful.

Did you install WB as a stand a lone download via normal browser or via Stardock Central (the chat/downloader/installer/backerupper/maintainer/all around swiss army browser)?

it may have been the sig.bin (i think it's called) - that's the only thing I can think of - I used Stardock Central (it also keeps track of updates and archives files for backup)

however, yeah you can reinstall it again if you reformat or something

at the support page, if you enter your email, they will send you your serial and a link for download (in case you lost everything in a crash)

In addition to what Bichur stated, download and install Stardock Central (SDC). Here is a tutorial for archiving through SDC.
